Abstract: This talk will provide an overview and motivation for Regge calculus (RC). We will highlight our insights into unique features of building GR on a discrete geometry in regards to structure preservation, and highlight some relative strengths and weaknesses of RC. We will review some numerical applications of RC, including our more recent work on discrete Ricci flow.
